As per Blogging Marathon 22, I choose West Bengal Cuisine Theme,
under this I try to prepare complete platter for Bengali cuisines. In this recipe we combine lentil, rice and
mixed veggies with some spices.
Bengali cuisine is a culinary style
originating in Bengal, a region
in the eastern South Asia which is now divided between the Bangladesh and the West Bengal. Bengali cuisine
is known for its subtle (yet sometimes fiery) flavors and its huge spread of
confectioneries and desserts. It also has perhaps the only traditionally
developed multi-course tradition from South Asia that is analogous in structure
to the modern Service à la russe style of French cuisine, with food served course-wise
rather than all at once.
